settlement visa fee

[sammyb]

i notice the fee for spouse visa application has gone up to £826 when i pay at the union bank does the british embassy use the same exchange rate? id hate to be a plonker and my managers cheque is light by 10 peso!! can anyone tell me how much to pay in peso..?
the reason i ask is when we payed for our certificate no impedimet at the british embassy the rate was fixed at 75 peso to the pound..

many thanks

The current exchange rate they use is 72 peso to the pound.

The settlement fee is 59,472 peso.
